This guy doesn't actually get his car running (which is probably for the best), but I found his reaction at the end to be pretty hilarious. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sp2V6NXCkE0

I go to World Street Nationals every year and see cars trapping 6's / low 7's. Ironically I've yet to see Millen's mustang yet in person which I would love since he's one of my favorites

Less tongue wagging, more videos.  You think holing the block in a car is bad, try having it happen while you're leaning over the drat thing and revving it to the moon. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zB-YwpvoPRY&feature=related

In my YouTube channel I have some early FFR GTM Supercar testing vids, a fox body with an NA 4.6 DOHC turning 9500RPM, racing my Lincoln at the track, a 1407HP trans am and an old video of ricers in a parking lot. http://www.youtube.com/compucar03

Yeah, I tried to find the original -- a much longer single take with the engine start and the ominous first loud POP! that lets you know something good and wholesome is about to happen -- but I couldn't find it.

It was on a forum I was on years ago and I just sorta uploaded videos I thought the internet had lost as I seemed to have a longer version than the others on YouTube. All I know is that it was in Raleigh NC.

Mulletstation posted:Launch #2 is confusing as gently caress to me. For the first part they spun in first (or second depending on gearing) up to 45 then caught traction so it was actually going 38. Spun all through the next gear, caught traction in 3rd(4th?) and kept going. That bypass valve on that supercharger is loud as gently caress. I couldn't ever hear the one on my Novi 1K.

Erlkonig should mean "demonstrator" or "prototype". Maybe someone with a better grasp on German could clarify. Marc Gene destroying a Peugeot during practice before this year's Lemans. This occurred through the Porsche Curves. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gSsorp6F36s kimbo305 posted:edit: what does Erlkoenig mean? Koenig is king, right?

Erlkönig means Elf-King, and is the name of a Goethe poem. That's all I knew until a quick google revealed that apparently it now also means some class of prototype or something. Or maybe just prototype. EDIT： in the poem, the Elf-King basically takes a farmer's kid's soul while the farmer's trying to get his sick kid help. I have no idea what this has to do with cars.

It is called Erlkönig since July 1952, when the German magazine "Auto, Motor und Sport" decided to publish an amateur picture of a Mercedes-Benz 180 prototype. The heading was "Erlkönig", and the accompanying text was a version of Goethe's poem, rewritten to be related to cars instead of the horse the father was riding on.
